I'm thinking of going to a A-Level College but i don't think i can manage all the coursework and the exams.
Which one out AS and A Levels should i go for?
I have the choice of doing
A-level LAW
A-level Media
A-level Communications and Culture
A-level Business
and Vice Versa in AS' Levels
vice versa means the reverse of things, i think you meant the same for AS. :P
law wont have too much, media will, communications not sure on and business i did 2 pieces in both years, but you dont spend too long doing it.
you also tend to drop one in the final year.
in other words, DO IT :)
They are really different A levels, they would probably be possible at a 6th form but not sure about college. Depends what you like most.
Ye that's why i meant. :eusa_dancQuote:

Ah good! I think they all seem like a good mix.
I like 60% cousework based courses as I seem to flunk the exams!
I guess i will take the advice from the experts. Better be right.. :@ I'll hunt you all down, don't matter how long it will take, i will find you all and... :)
youve got to think also, in a few years time, youll have to compete with people who will have a levels as standard, considering they are going to be making further education compulsory
i'm going to a sixth form and i would recommend a levels. Those aren't that hard a levels and coursework has been cut down dramatically so yeah i think you'll be fine.. why don't you just do 3AS then 2 A and another AS or something like that?!
Only one I've had experience of is Business and it wasn't that hard really. Would have been easier if I had any sort of a memory lol. At a guess I would say Law would be the hardest on that list.
Because most decent unis ask for three complete A levels?Quote:

Na, as you say anything can happen. That's why I'm doing these A Levels as if i don't get into the police, i know I've got other back ups that i can use to get into other Jobs.
A Levels are pretty pointless if you're not going to uni, a btec or or some other vocational qualification would be better if it's purely to increase job prospects.
Only very basic maths. Trust me, I'm the worst at mathsQuote:

If you think you can do that then go for it, it's a really interesting course and I fell totally in love with Law because of it.
if you go you need to be full focused, they can be very hard. make sure you work hard in the first year or second year will make you cry.
